Dixie students will have a
convenient way to load their
lunch accounts this year,
with the new PAMS system.
A week before school, par-
ents can go to PayPams.com
and register to make online
payments into school lunch
accounts.

Parents will be able to pay
for school lunches 24/7,
view account balances,
schedule automatic pay-
ments, receive emailed no-
tices when children's ac-
counts are running low, and
get a daily report of what
children are buying for
lunch. Account balances
can be transferred from one
year to the next and even
from school to school.

A small "convenience fee"
will be charged to "cover
the cost of processing pay-
ments and maintaining the
website." Parents can also
make payments and moni-
tor account balances on the
phone, but will not have ac-
cess to low balance and pur-
chase information.

Perry Murder for Hire plot foiled:

Man tried to have ex-wife, fiance and two children

robbed, tortured and murdered'

The Perry Police Depart-
ment and the Florida De-
partment of Law Enforce-
ment (FDLE) on Sunday ar-
rested Robert Wayne Corn-
well, 32, of Perry and
charged him with four
counts of solicitation to
commit murder, a first de-
gree felony

On Aug. 11, the Perry Po-
lice Department received in-
formation that Cornwell
was attempting to hire
someone to kill his ex-wife.
The Perry Police Depart-
ment requested the assis-
tance of FDLE's Tallahas-
see Regional Operations
Center in the investigation.
Four days later, Cornwell
met with an individual he
believed was a hit man but
who was actually an under-
cover law enforcement offi-
cer.

Cornwell asked the under-
cover officer to rob and kill
his ex-wife, her child, her fi-
ance and the fiance's child
at her residence in Perry
and suggested that all four
be tortured first. Cornwell
provided specific instruc-
tions on where cash and

jewelry were located and
advised that he wanted
the murder to take place
that night. The under-
cover officer was told he
would get half of the
cash and possessions
taken as payment for do-
ing the job.

"The final outcome of
this investigation is a
great example of a su-
perb level of cooperation
between law enforcement
agencies. This investigation
led to the arrest of a poten-
tially violent offender that
was actively seeking some-
one to commit murder for
him," said Perry Police De-
partment Captain James
Cruse. "By making this ar-
rest, these agencies protect-
ed the lives of four innocent
citizens of the State of
Florida. The ultimate goal
of everyone in law enforce-
ment is to make a positive
impact into the lives of the
citizens we serve; in this
case, that goal has been ob-
tained and the innocent
have been protected."

"There is no doubt that the
quick action by law enforce.

Cornwell
ment put a halt on what
could have been a horrific
quadruple homicide," said
FDLE Special Agent in
Charge Don Ladner. "We're
pleased that this ended safe-
ly for this family and with
the individual who tried to
harm them behind bars."

Cornwell was apprehended
without incident and
booked into the Taylor
County Jail where he is be-
ing held without bond. He
faces up to 30 years in
prison. The investigation
continues with additional
arrests possible. Anyone
with information is asked
to contact Detective Dwight
Norris at (850) 584-5121.

Good deed: D.O.T. gives C.O.P.'s

the shirts off their backs

When The Motor Carrier
Compliance Office decide to
switch to a new, different
uniform, the question of
what to do with the old ones
arose.

In the past, the uniforms
had just been destroyed. In-
spector Kenneth "Tank" Lee
of the Old Town Scales had
a different idea. He had no-
ticed several times while the
C.O.P's were conducting
their duties, that they
wore a uniform that was
very similar to the ones
the Inspectors wore.

During an Inspectors
meeting, Inspector Lee
suggested to Captain
Thomas and Lt. Bullard
that, instead of destroy-
ing the uniforms, donate
them to the Dixie County

C.O.P's. The suggestion, af-
ter going through proper
channels, was approved,
and the uniforms were gath-
ered from all of the Inspec-
tors in District 2 (Lake
City), and were sent to the
Old Town Scales. With assis-
tance from Major Scott

Tank Lee, who coordinated
the donation, stated that
"We are helping those that
help us".

Thursday morning, Au-
gust 12, 2010, Kameo
Carter and Chelsea Ed-
wards were giving an ac-
quaintance, Lydia Estes, a
ride to Old Town when
they experienced car
trouble.and became dis-
abled south of Cross City
on U.S. 19. As they were
stranded on the highway,
Pam McCreery was trav-
eling through from St.
:Marks and stopped to offer.
assistance to the three
ladies. Thinking the car
was out of gas; McCreery
took the ladies to town to
get some gas and returned
to the car. While still with
the girls McCreery noticed
her money missing from
her purse and questioned
the girls about the money
At that time, Estes began
walking off and attempting
to flag down passing mo-
torists. Both Carter and Ed-
wards were attempting to
get Estes to return when a
passing truck-driver
stopped to give Estes a ride.

It was about this time that a
Cross City police officer
was on his way into Cross
City to begin his shift of
work when he spotted this
and stopped thinking there
was a disturbance. When

Estes

he realized there had been a
theft he called for a deputy
to respond and left to at-
tempt to locate the semi that
had given Estes a ride. The
semi was stopped a short
distance south on U.S. 19
where Estes was located
still with the driver. During
the stop personal effects of
McCreery's was found in
the passenger area of the
semi and on Estes' person
along with several hundred
dollars in cash. Also found
with her was a cell phone
that had been taken from
Kameo Carter while they
were all still in the car to-
gether.:

Lydia Estes was arrested for
Grand Theft and Petit Theft
for actions involving the
two separate victims in the
case and transported to the
Dixie County Jail.

Grand Theft Auto in

Fanning Springs

A Levy County Deputy was
sitting across the street
from the "Dawg House" bar
on US 19 in Fanning
Springs on Saturday after-
noon when he was a white
Toyota SUV pull out of the
parking lot. The SUV spun
it's tires and accelerated to
a "high rate of speed" and
then passed the Deputy. The
Deputy pursued the SUV,
which made a U-turn at the
Waco 6 in an attempt to get
away.

The Deputy chased, lights
and sirens blazing, north to-
wards Dixie County. The
SUV tried to turn right onto
NW 80th street, but missed
and turned into the Suwan-
nee River Fairground park-
ing lot, with the Deputy hot
on its heels. THe SUV tried
to drive between two trees,
but hit one of the trees, dis-
abling the SUV

Still not giving up, the dri-
ver jumped out of the pas-'
senger side door of the ve-
hicle and ran north on foot.

FHP and Gilchrist County
officers came to assist and
set up a perimeter.

K-9 "Taz" was put on the
trail and tracked the fleeing
suspect all the way to the
Bear's Den Bar. The suspect
was in the parking lot, and
was captured and identified
as Victor A. Vanderlinde,
37, of Fanning Springs.

The White SUV had been re-
ported stolen from Cedar
Key on the previous Sunday.

Vanderlinde was charged
with resisting arrest with-
out violence and reckless
driving. His license had
been revoked back in 2006
for five years as a "habitual
traffic offender."

SchooL starts Monday, August 23rd.
Please drive carefully and look for school buses.

All student athletes at RRMS & DCHS must have
physical to play. Avoid the rush and get one today. The
school clinic will not be giving physical this year. Students
without a physical when the season starts will not play.

Every Week without Fail, Since July 1, 1921

A man like Roosevelt?

In the election campaign of 1960, John E Kennedy used
the slogan, "Vote for a man like Roosevelt." Fifteen
years after World War II ended, people still remem-
bered the president who held office during that crucial
conflict. FDR's domestic policies were in some respects
extreme, but he was still an American icon,.based on
his wartime leadership.

It should be noted here that the liberalism of Roo-
sevelt's day, and of Kennedy's, had not reached the
point of trashing the Constitution and viewing our
country as the enemy while denying the malign mo-
tives of our true adversaries. To today's liberal estab-
lishment, George W Bush is more to be loathed than .
Osama bin Laden; but a half-century ago, a liberal
could still be a patriot without feeling uncomfortable
in the company of his peers.

JFK did not live long enough to finish one term, and
while much controversy remains as to the efficacy of
his time in office, I will say one thing in his behalf,
that he was the last Democrat to appoint a qualified
candidate, that being the late Byron White, to the Unit-
ed States Supreme Court.

In any event, the "man like Roosevelt" to whom I have
reference is not JFK, it is Barack Obama. Now, before
you think I have totally lost my mind, permit me to ex-
plain why I think Obama is like FDR, and it is certain-
ly not to suggest an equivalency in leadership or
statesmanship.

You may recall that last month, President Obama and
his family took a vacation in Maine. Nothing wrong
with that, I suppose, but apparently the First Family
neglected to take the family pet along, so they found it
necessary to have Bo, a Portuguese water dog, flown
on another military jet to their vacation spot. I'm sure
the girls were delighted to have their pet pooch with
them, but really, would it have been too much to expect
them to take him along on Air Force One and hold it to
one trip, just for the sake of the economy?

By now, you're no doubt wondering what this has to do
with Obama being like Roosevelt. Well, the other day, I
ran across an item from the Franklin D. Roosevelt li-
brary, in which I discovered that, in1944, FDR was vis-
iting the Aleutian Islands when he realized that his pet
dog, Fala, a Scotch terrier, had been left behind. So he
ordered the Navy to transport the little fellow to this
region aboard a destroyer One might have thought
that, at the height of World War II, the Navy could
have found a more essential assignment for a destroy-
er, but that was just what the Republicans were saying,
and what did they know?

However, even at that, Franklin D. was no match for
the Obama clan when it came to frivolous expenses.
You must have heard about Michele's taking one of
their daughters and forty-eleven friends, admirers and
hangers-on to Spain aboard military aircraft for a few
days vacation at a five-star hotel, with a platoon of Se-
cret Service personnel to keep the bad guys at bay. To
suggest that this caper cost the taxpayers a million dol-
lars would be to assume that the guests paid their own
air fare, room rent and personal expenses. A $million
would scarcely cover what got spent in souvenir shops
and local bars. Liberals don't seem to have a problem
with this, yet they hammered Bush for taking an occa-
sional weekend at his Texas ranch, which he bought
and paid for with his own money!

As his family vacationed at an exotic Spanish resort,
Barack Went back to Chicago to celebrate his birthday,
and perhaps seek counseling from some of his ACORN
advisers as they offered their plans to cut the losses for
the party in the November election. A man like Roo-
sevelt? Don't make me laugh. Whether or not you liked
FDR, he at least knew what he was doing.

CUNNING, DECEITFUL AND MISLEADING?
I have been accused of a lot of things during this election adultery and tax evasion
to name just two. I have refrained from responding to personal attacks. In his
j recent political advertisement, Mr. Osteen openly accuses me of being cunning,
deceitful, and misleading. I must respond. To fail to respond would be to allow
disparagement of not only me, but of the office of County Judge as well. I will try to
address his accusations in the order he made them.
/ In his ad in the Dixie County Times August 12, 2010, Mr. Osteen states, that the
7 position of Circuit Judge "has become cunningly intertwined with this election." He
1 knows that the Dixie County Judge routinely sits as an Acting Circuit Judge. He has
appeared before me in that capacity; he has come to my office and asked questions
about Circuit Court. During this campaign, he responded to a question in the Dixie
County Advocate about "deadbeat mothers;" similarly, at a "speaking" in July he
responded to a question about sending persons to prison. Both of those issues are
outside of a County Judge's jurisdiction; only Circuit Judges may address them in
court. When he, or whoever, contacted the Personnel Office, they could have asked
some more questions and found out that the current Dixie County Judge position is
counted as four tenths of a Full Time Equivalent Circuit Judge position for judicial
funding and assignments. For him to now insinuate surprise is astonishing.
(Alternatively, if he did not know he was talking about Circuit Judge work when he responded to those questions, that.is
potentially a much more serious question.)
Later in the same advertisement Mr. Osteen quotes my advertisement,
1. Judge Koberlein "has juggled his calendar and stretched his time to cover those Circuit Court cases." and,
2. "unless Judge Koberlein is re-elected this year, a judge from outside of our county will be appointed to handle these cases."
He then alleges those statements "have caused a bit of confusion and deceit." BUT NOWHERE DOES HE SHOW THAT
EITHER OF THOSE STATEMENTS IS ANYTHING LESS THAN 100% TRUE AND ACCURATE. He can not show they are less
than accurate because they are the truth. He does not even try to show deceit or to correct those statements.
With respect to the first statement Annually, I schedule all County Court recurring events; then I fill in Circuit Court recurring
events in some of the remaining time available. During monthly, weekly and daily reviews to schedule non-recurring events, the
County Court events are always given priority. Most County Court matters are held on the same day each month as they have
been held for some twenty years. (There is one exception. In order to save the Clerk of Courts from the time and expense of
subpoenaing multiple juries each month, I have instituted procedures for the felony, misdemeanor, and civil jury trials to overlap
every other month. To date no County Court case has been impaired by that procedure.)
With respect to the second statement Mr. Osteen admits the truth of the statement in his ad; but tries to explain away his
concession by saying out-of-county appointed judges will cover for his lack of the necessary experience or appointment.
Although he mentions that eventually he will acquire the time required to be a Circuit Judge, he does not mention his ever
becoming qualified for or obtaining an appointment as an Acting Circuit Judge.
A major part of his ad seems to be complaining that I did hot mention that I receive $3.80 per hour for circuit court work. I do
receive that money when. it is available; it was not paid last fiscal year; it is currently not being paid; it is funded strangely; people
in Circuit Court frequently hear me joking about being paid $3.80 per hour; my Judicial Assistant often tells me that I fail to submit
large "chunks of time" for payment. Additionally, contrary to my challenger's accusations, my time does not amount to
"additional tax dollars." The various County Judges that accept the appointments to do Circuit Court work are factored into the
Supreme Court's Certification of Need and appropriately funded by the Florida Legislature to avoid having to hire additional
Circuit Court Judges. As I stated above I am considered to be four-tenths of an FTE Circuit Judge for the legislature's budget.
There are similar funding issues for magistrates and hearing officers. I will be happy to sit down with anybody and try to explain
the Legislature 's funding as best as I understand it. Mr. Osteen's complaints or comments about pay seem to be coming from
someone who has not taken time to get all of the facts.
(PS just so I do not get accused of omission here are some more facts about pay: in 2003, I took a pay cut to become the Dixie
County Judge; I am not paid by Dixie County; all judicial pay is funded by the Legislature; I receive the same salary as all County
Judges in Florida; the salary has not been increased for several years; two years ago, the Legislature cut many elected officials'
and all judges' salaries; I was reduced by about $2,600.00 per year; I do not recall the precise amount; it is a public record.)
At the bottom of his ad, Mr. Osteen makes the accusation of misleading information; he does not show anything that I have ever
said to be misleading. He does not even tell you what information he considers to be misleading; he just makes the accusation.
Just because he does not know, remember, or understand something does not make my saying it deceitful or misleading.
The central core of the information that I was disseminated was that unless Judge Koberlein is re-elected this year, a judge from
outside of our county will be appointed to handle these cases. That statement is repeated multiple times in my ad. In his
response he claims that I am cunning, deceitful, and misleading, and then he admits that the statement is true.

C "ril Mi~ ers

by Bonnie Wilson

I have enjoyed many great
trail rides over the years
with the Levy County Horse
Club. This week I'd like to
share one more of my fa-
vorite places to trail ride
and that is San Felasco. By
going north on Highway 349
to Highway 340. Turn right
on highway 340 heading
east until you dead-end at
the stop sign at highway
27/41 in High Springs. Turn
left to the traffic light, high-
way 27, and turn right
which will take you onto
highway 441 to Alachua.
You'll travel past 1-75 ap-
proximately2.6 miles and go
over an overpass with rail-
road tracks below. The first
road on your right will be
Progress Blvd. that leads
you through an Industrial
Park onto a non-paved road
to the entrance of San Fe-
lasco Hammock Preserve
State Park.
Prairies, Forests,
and Swamps, oh my!
Now at 7,000 acres with the
newly acquired Fox Pond
site, the San Felasco Ham-
mock Preserve State Park is
one of the finest examples
of the climax mesic ham-
mocks remaining in Flori-
da. The park is located to
the northwest of
Gainesville, in north Flori-
da's Alachua County The
limestone outcrops and ex-
treme changes in elevation
provide conditions for at
least 18 biological commu-
nities within the hammock,
including areas of sandhill,
hydric hammock, upland
pine, and swamp. Thanks to
the region's karst topogra-
phy, sinkholes, steephead
springs, ponds, and small
lakes dot the landscape.
Blues Creek, Turkey Creek,
and Cellon Creek all enter
San Felasco from outside
the park boundary and flow
through the park, finally
dropping into swallows,
which drain back into tfhe
aquifer.',
San Felasco has
two entrances: one for hik-
ing and trail running to
the south, and one for
mountain biking and horse
trails to the north. The
southern two-thirds.of the
park is designated for hik-
ing only. The northern
most 2,000 acres are desig-
nated for multi-use purpos-
es including horseback rid-
ing, off-road bicycling, and
hiking. The Friends of San
Felasco, Inc. and other in-

terested volunteers, built
trails in this section.
My trail riding
friends and I have encoun-
tered a few bicycle riders as
our paths cross on our ad-
venturesome trails however
we have discovered our
horses do not mind them as
long as they can see them
coming. Although our paths
do cross on occasion, they
are definitely on separate
paths. The bicycle people
are very nice, just like our
trail riders they are courte-
Sous and we all look out for
one another out on the
trails.
One of our favorite
trails is the orange trail. It
winds up through some of
the most beautiful and hilly
tree lined trails that are ex-
ceptionally wonderful to
climb. I also love the ride
down to the creek and
through the woods. It is tru-
ly astonishing and inspir-
ing. The crossing of the
creek is great for the horses
to grab a drink of water
and splash and play for a
moment. I've not had the
pleasure of taking Coby
there just yet but I do look
forward to doing just that
very soon.
Summer is official-
ly over and fall is in the air.
Well, I can dream can't I? It
is still very warm and we
are only in the middle of
August. Those dreaded dog
days of August are here and
very hot. Still I am longing
for September and I fmd
myself watching those old
westerns with Gene and
Roy and the gang. I can
hear Gene singing "back in
the saddle again..." and I'm
certainly wishing that for
Coby, my little brown-eyed
wonder horse, and yours
truly. I'm missing my trail
riding buddies too. After all
Gene and Roy had their
side kicks too. In the im-
mortal words of Roy Rogers
and Dale Evans...Happy
trails to you until we meet
again, keep smiling until
then! If you're interested in
trail riding you-can contact

ty police report, Read was
staying at the motel with his
girlfriend when the Deputy
was dispatched out on a do-
mestic assault. The victim
"was visibly shaken and in
fear for her safety." She told
the Deputy that Read had
threatened to "kill her cat
and strangle her with Hot
Rod. The report explained
that Hot Rod "is the defen-
dant's belt that he was hold-
ing in his hands when he
made the threat" ard that
"when I entered the
room...Read was putting his
belt on." The girlfriend said
that there had been physical
violence in the past and was
in fear for her safety

Lesley spoke about the Sexu-
al Violence Taskforce that
we are starting here in the
community. Another Way
wants to begin a Sexual Vio-

ie County. This will be an ef-
fort to bring together differ-
ent community organiza-
tions, agencies, businesses
and ministries to work to-
gether to prevent sexual vio-
lence in our area, as well as
to provide services for the
sexual violence victims. We
all have something different
to offer and coming together
to work as a unit will pro-
vide us with the knowledge
and ability to know what
contacts to make'when we
are confronted with a sexual
violence victim to provide
her with the resources she
needs to receive financial as-
sistance, legal assistance,
- and counseling services.

"THE BOYS"

The day was August the ninth,
1930 the year,
When into the world they came.
Jimmy Dan and Eddie Joe Wood
were to some,
One and the same.
When you saw one, you saw the other,
'cause
Seldom was one seen without his brother.
Though times were hard;
they were raised poor.
Life with "the boys" could not be a bore.
They had lots of fun,
in trouble they'd get.
The things they "got into,"
you'd never forget.
Over the years, they've done quite a lot,
They joined the Army, logged,
farmed a plot.
"The Boys" married sisters,
June and Laverne.
Now to raise a family,
it was their turn.
Eddie Joe & Laverne,
a daughter they had one.
Jimmy Dan and June,
their three were sons.
During the years, the grand-kids they got,
Eddie Joe two, and Jimmy Dan a lot.
They're eighty today,
but they're still little boys.
They have their own golf carts,
guns and trucks -
All their toys.
Although the words may
not often be said,
"The Boys" are loved by all of their kids.
The tale of "The Boys" is not finished,
you bet..
There are plenty of things
I'm sure they'll do yet.
There's a lot to this story that
hasn't been told.
Just listen to them and the
past will unfold.

We would like to take this opportu-
nity to say a special Thank You e
to the Cross City Church of
Christ.

We without Malice or ill
will like to announce that
Steven J. Potter had two
sets of parents and family .
even though Eddie Earl
Rhodes was the adopted par-
ent, Steven still had his bi-
logical father Lancer Potter.
We would like to acknowledge the
Potter family which was not mentioned
in the obituary

The Potter family consists of the following: parents are
Lancer and Kim Potter, grandparents are Danny and Carol
Potter, Aunts and Uncles is Lucas and Pam Barden,
Cousins Jordan and Breanna Barden, and his siblings Jen-
nifer Allen consist of Daniel and Heather Potter. And his
special aunt Mitzi who loved him very much.

Even though God called Steven Potter home at an early
age just to be our guardian angle, his immediate Potter
family was by his side night and day Lancer and Kim and
the grandmother Carol Potter was at the bedside when he
passed. His father Lancer held his hand and their was only
peace, it was the must precious moment of his life. Steven
J. Potter will be missed by his family everyday. you will
never be forgotten your presence is always with us. We love
you

Rotarians frequently receive
comments of how the communi-
ty likes to see the flags flying in
Dixie County on holidays. On
eight holidays during the year,
members of the Dixie County
Rotary Club place flags on the
building facades of participat-
ing businesses in Cross city and
Old Town. At this time we'd
like to thank the businesses who
have participated in this pro-
gram with their financial sup-
port.

Each year a business pays $ 40
to the Rotary Club, and the Ro-
tarians take time from their hol-
iday celebrations to put up and
take down the flags. Depending
on the day that the holiday falls,
the flags may fly for just a day or
an entire three day weekend.

We invite business located in
Cross City or Old Town to be-
come a participant in our Holi-
day Flag Program. With your
contribution of $ 40.00, one of

our Rotarians will find an appro-
priate place at your business to
attach a bracket. Then, on the
various holidays, Rotarians will
put up the flag and take it down.
If you are interested in being a
part of this program, please call
Dana Johnson in the evenings at
498-7677.

The funds from the Holiday Flag
Program are used solely for phil-
anthropic projects of the Dixie
-County Rotary Club. Over the
years, these funds have been
used primarily to fund scholar-
ships for graduating seniors of
Dixie County High School. We
also support United Christian
Services with annual donations.

One of our most appreciated lo-
cal projects is "The Dictionary
Project." The 2010-2011 year
marks the 5th year that the club
will donate a dictionary to each
3rd grader in Dixie County. The
"Dictionary Project" is. a nation-
wide effort through which over
12 million dictionaries have been
distributed since 1995. I wish you
could see the faces on the chil-
dren as they receive their own
personal dictionary, write their
names on the inside cover, and
learn to look up words. The stu-
dents use their dictionaries in
class throughout the school year,
and then the dictionaries go
home with them at the end of
the year and hopefully are their
Companions throughout their
school years. This is a project
that has been well received by
'both students and teachers, and
we look forward to making our
annual presentation during the
fall school term.

Over the past few years The Ro-
tary Club of Dixie County has.
purchased four Shelter Boxes
through Shelter Box USA. The
shelter box is a self contained
box of emergency supplies that -
is shipped to a disaster area.
The box contains one (or some-
times 2) 10 man tent, sleeping
mats or bags, water purifying
equipment, cooking equipment,
a multi-fueled cook stove, and
other essential emergency items.
Our first box was shipped to So-
malia in 2006, and the second
went to Myanmar. In 2010, two
boxes were shipped to Haiti.

All Dixie County Rotarians are
Sustaining Members of the Ro-
tary Foundation, each giving $
100 per year to the Foundation.
Among the Foundation's many
projects, the most well known is
Polio Plus which has been a long
term project to completely eradi-
cate polio from the face of the
, earth. Since 1985, the Rotary
Foundation has been committed
to eradicating polio. In 1985
there were 350,000 cases annual-
ly worldwide; now that number
is down to 1,700. The Bill and.
Melinda Gates Foundation has
committed $355 million to the
Rotary Foundation to help with
this project and has challenged
Rotarians worldwide to raise
$200 million. Rotary is 2/3 of
the way to completing its finan-
cial goal, and the world is closer
than ever to eliminating the
threat of polio throughout the
world.

The Rotary Holiday Flag Pro-
gram is just one way that the
members of the Dixie County
Rotary Club promote community
spirit as well as raise funds for
their many philanthropic pro-
grams.

Save your change
for this year's Boot
Drive

Dixie County Emergency
Services would like to re-
mind all that Labor Day is
coming soon. This is a holi-
day that has special mean-
ing to our fire service local-
ly and to all fire services na-
tionwide. This is a time that
we can do something to help
others in need. During this
special time each year, our
department, along with fire
departments all across the
country will be collecting
money to help children and
adults alike that suffer from
Muscular Dystrophy Our
department will begin col-
lecting this week in a few lo-
cal businesses with small
donation cans.

On the Friday before Labor
Day, September 3, 2010, at ap-
proximately 10:00 AM, our
department will be conduct-
ing a boot drive at the red
light in Old Town on US 19.
All monies collected will
benefit this cause. As al-
ways, none of the donated
monies go to our depart-
ment or any other cause.
100% of collections go to the
MDA.

Last year our department
collected a total of $2555.87.
We understand that times
are not good for collections,
as the economy is still not
well, but please remember
the cause as you see the
cans on the counter and our
members standing in the
sun in the middle of the
highway. We would like to
thank everyone in advance
for your support in this
cause.

Title I No Child Left Behind
"Adequate Yearly Progress"
Dear Dixie County Citizens:
The federal No Child Left Be-
hind Act of 2001 requires that
parents be notified if their
child attends a Title I school
that does not make Adequate
Yearly Progress (AYP). In
Dixie County, our Title I
schools are Anderson Elemen-
tary School and Old Town Ele-
mentary School.
Schools that receive
funding under Title I, Part A,
of The No Child Left Behind
Act, must meet 100% of the
targets for "Adequate Yearly
Progress" (AYP) in each sub-
ject area. During the 2009-10
school year Old Town Elemen-
tary School had significant
learning gains. Old Town El-
ementary or Anderson Ele-
mentary did not make the
100% requirement of federal
AYP; thus, they have been
identified as schools "In Need
of Improvement/Corrective
Action."
Old Town Elementary School
satisfied 95% of the total AYP
targets. Target areas missed
for Old Town Elementary in-
clude:
S Proficiency in Read-
. ing and Math for one sub-
group
Anderson Elementary School
satisfied 79% of the total AYP
targets. Target areas missed
for Anderson Elementary
School include:
S Proficiency in Read-
ing and/or Math for four sub-
groups
Anderson Elementary and
Old Town Elementary are
quality schools, and we are
working diligently to provide
continuous improvement.
Anderson Elementary made a
"C" and Old Town Elementary

IS CITY
li' = mi

School made an "A" under
Florida's grading system.
Learning gains at both
schools are ranked among the
highest in the state.
As part of the School Im-
provement Plan for Title I
schools, we currently have the
following programs in place to
help improve scores of all stu-
dents in all subgroups:
S Scientific-based-re-
search Reading program for
all students, K-5
S Intensive remedia-
tion mandatory for all stu-
dents below grade level
S Reading coaches in
all schools
S After school academ-
ic services for low performing
students
S Scientific-based-re-
search alternative instruc-
tional programs for struggling
students
S A researched based
progress-monitoring system
called ThinkGate '
The District Office also works
for the continuous improve-
ment of our schools by pro-
viding:
S strong, stable district
leadership
S high quality instruc-
tional materials and profes-
sional development for our
teachers and staff
S reading coaches
S technical assistance
as needed
S model classrooms
S assistance in the de-
velopment of a focused school
improvement plan
The District is required to of-
fer parents 'meaningful choice
options' if their child attends
a Title I school that has not
made AYP. Because the dis-
trict is a "single feeder dis-
trict," the Transportation
with Choice option is not pos-
sible. The Dixie County
School District will offer the
following two options for the
10-11 school year:

S Student(s) will con-
tinue to participate in the aca-
demic program he/she is cur-
rently enrolled in;
S Student(s) will par-
ticipate in a Supplemental Ed-
ucational Services after-
school tutoring program
According to NCLB guide-
lines, the District is required
to prioritize students for Sup-
plemental Educational Ser-
vices based on lowest acade-
mic performance and free
and reduced lunch status
when delivering these ser-
vices. Dixie District has
funds to provide services to
one hundred and seventy-six
(176) students. Therefore, if
more students apply than
available funding, parents are
advised that first priority
must be given to the lowest
performing students.
Parents have been sent a let-
ter if their child met the crite-
ria for Supplemental Educa-
tional Services (after-school
tutoring program). A district-
wide Provider Fair is planned
for 5:00 pm until 6:30 pm on
Thursday, August 19th at An-
derson Elementary and Old
Town Elementary Cafeterias.
It will give parents an oppor-
tunity to meet the State ap-
proved providers for our dis-
trict before making the best
decision for their child.
Parents are asked to contact
their child's school (Old Town
Elementary @ 498-6300 or An-
derson Elementary School @
498-6200) or the District Title I
Office @498-6288 if they need
to discuss their child's educa-
tional options in more detail.
The Dixie County School Dis-
trict is committed to provid-
ing every student with the
highest quality education pos-
sible. Working together, we
can ensure that all students
succeed at the highest levels.
Respectfully,
Mark Rains
Superintendent of Schools

Since the beginning of the
judicial campaign, Mr. Os-
teen has avoided a contest
between himself and Judge
Koberlein. He has repeated-
ly promoted himself on the
grounds that he is the only
candidate who can complete
the term; that way he only
has to run against some
vague invisible person yet
to be named. He continual-
ly raises the inference that
there is something wrong
with a Governor appointed
judge even though the ap-
pointed judge will have to
be a Dixie County resident
and will have to prevail in
an election.

Two weeks ago, he lessened
his stance. In a political ad-
vertisement, paid for and
approved by him, Mr. Os-
teen conceded that an ap-
pointed judge may possess
sufficient qualifications and
qualities that there may not.
be an election in 2014. He
published,"an election is
only needed if the appoint-
ed judge draws an oppo-
nent." (Dixie County Times
August 5, 2010.) We, here in
Dixie County, know the
compliment being extended
by the absence of opposi-
tion.

This past week in another
political advertisement,
paid for and approved by
him, Mr. Osteen conceded
that out-of-county Governor
appointed judges are fine.
Specifically, he said that if
he is elected, "our circuit
court cases will be handled
by at least one of those sev-
en fine judges...." (Dixie
County Times August 12,
2010.)

In the ad, Mr. Osteen erro-
neously wrote of "seven
Circuit Judges who we
voted into office." When it
was pointed out to him that
five of the seven judges he
referred to were appointed
by Governors and that we
have never been given a
chance to vote for or against
any of them, he responded,
"I didn't think of that." He
was then asked if he wanted

to reconsider any other
parts of his advertisement;
he declined to do so.

Now we know that a Judge
who resides outside of Dix-
ie County and was appoint-
ed by a Governor is FINE
with Mr. Osteen by his own
admission in his own adver-
tisement.

Stated differently, if a judi-
cial appointment is needed
to fill a vacancy caused by
Judge Koberlein's constitu-
tional forced retirement, Mr.
Osteen is against a well
,qualified Governor appoint-
ed judge who has to be a
Dixie County resident and
who has to stand for elec-
tion in 2014. But, and this is
a big BUT, if a judicial ap-
pointment is needed to fill a
vacancy caused by Mr. Os-
teen's constitutional defi-
ciencies, Mr. Osteen is fine
with a Governor appointed
out-of-county judge who
does not have to stand for
election. What is the differ-
ence?

Another major part of Mr.
Osteen's campaign has been
the necessity of having a lo-
cal judge hear our Dixie
County cases. Judge Kober-
lein agrees; he currently
hears more than ninety per-
cent of the Circuit Court
civil cases brought in Dixie
County. (He routinely de-
clines to hear cases in
which Dixie County or one
of our officers is a party.)
He is beginning to hear Cir-
cuit Court criminal cases.
In the same advertisement
as referenced above, Mr. Os-
teen reveals that he consid-
ers having your County
Judge hear our Circuit
Court Cases to be "more or
less, a 'convenience.'"

Since 2006, more than 3100
family law cases (5,000+/-
citizens), and about 1,000
other circuit court civil cas-
es, have had the benefit of
having a judge who resides
in our county. Mr. Osteen
does not explain what he
means by a mere "conve-
nience." But, by having
that convenience, those citi-
zens did not have to wait for
an appointed out-of-county
judge to come to Dixie
County

Vote absentee, vote early, or
vote in person on August 24.
When you do, vote for the
candidate who has demon-
strated reasonable logic and
who has remained consis-
tent.

S M an't believe how
the summer'break has flown
by. My baby is going to be a'Se-
nior this year. The only school
supplies he requires is a pen
and some paper. I am a little
melancholy for the days when I
would take my two shopping
for just the right backpack and
all the supplies. The perfect
clothes for the first day of
school was a must. I would get
up early and make them a spe-
cial breakfast. Then I would
take pictures on the back
steps. Off we would go with
butterflies in our stomachs. Of
course, I would be more anx-
ious then they were. Now it's
me yelling "get up the bell is
gonna ring!" and "You need to
eat SOMETHING!" then "I love
you" as he stomps out of the
house. He is not a morning
person.
As I put out a plea for some
ideas for this week I received a
great one from Lindsey Ram-
sey for the teachers. "Instead
of buying Magic Erasers
which can be expensive to
erase my students dry erase
boards, I use used dryer sheets.
They are great and you get
twice your monies worth out of
them. I keep a gallon plastic
bag right by the dryer to put
the used ones in as I am
pulling clothes from the dry-
er."

Lola Butler requested some
breakfast tips. I found a really
easy one that can be made in a
snap so it can cook while
everyone is getting ready

sweeter breakfast you could If your kids just can't eat
try this next recipe. Make it something in the morning how
the night before and pop it out about whipping up some

a sip also.
Frozen Banana Treats

Sprinkle granola onto a large
piece of waxed paper; set

chocolate chips; stir until

until blended.

Insert a Popsicle stick into
each banana half. Spread with
chocolate mixture; roll in gra-
nola. Wrap in foil and freeze
for 24 hours.

ter school snack I make is a

MILITARY

MOMENTS
WITH TANK
GULF OF TONKIN
CONSPIRACY

The Gulf of Tonkin Incident of
1964 may rank with the Japan-
ese bombing of Pearl Harbor
and the assassination of Presi-
dent John F Kennedy as events
that Dr. David Kaiser of the US
Naval War College describes as
"controversies in American po-
litical history that dwarf all
others".
For years there
have been claims
that the adminis-
tration of Presi-
dent Lyndon John-
son deliberately
triggered the Viet
Nam War by or-
chestrating the
Gulf of Tonkin In-
cident and duping
Congress.
Did the US intentionally insti-
gate the first attack on the USS
Maddox? Did Secretary of De-
fense Robert S. McNamara
knowingly and deliberately mis-
lead the US Congress to obtain
support for what would be

known as The Gulf of Tonkin
Resolution, to ensure President
Johnson's re-election and ulti-
mately lead the US into war?
This, like so many other con-
spiracies, had plenty of ques-
tions, but no answers. Just top-
ics for debate.
The conspiracy revolves around
a so-called unprovoked attack
on the USS Maddox in the Gulf
of Tonkin, off the coast of Viet
Nam. Supposedly, this was a re-
taliation for the South Viet-
namese raids, with CIA support,
on installations in North Viet
Nam.
Senator Wayne Morse (D-Ore),
who already
called the con-
flict "McNama-
ra's War", de-
clared; "I am
opposed to this
S course of action
which, in my
judgment, is an
aggressive
course of action
on the part of
the US. I think
you are kidding the world if you
try to give the impression that
when the South Vietnamese
naval boats bombed two islands
off the coast of North Viet Nam
, we were not implicated". Sena-
tor Morse also noted that the
American vessels were "conve-
niently standing by as support

for the South Vietnamese opera-
tions.
In response, McNamara denied
any US naval involvement in
the raids.
After the Gulf of Tonkin Reso-
lution was passed, Senator
Morse, one of two opposing
votes in the 88-2 vote, closed his
argument by saying "I believe
that within the next century, fu-
ture generations will look with
dismay and great disappoint-
ment upon a congress which is
now about to make a historic
mistake".
Interestingly, a resolution stat-
ing "Upon request of South Viet
Nam government to use all mea-
sures, including the commit-
ment of US armed forces (the
very resolution that became the
Gulf of Tonkin resolution) had
been prepared in May 1964,
three months before the "unpro-
voked attacks" ever occurred.
In the US, the Viet Nam War as
a whole and the Gulf of Tonkin
Incident, remain topics of wide-
ly ranging interpretation and
debate.
So the debate continues, as it
has for more than forty five
years, and probably/will till the
end of time. There are ques-
tions that we don't know the an-
swer to, or never will.

AJUGULT 24 is fast approaching and
early voting has begun. I know there
are many residents I haven't been able
to talk to and for that, I am truly sorry.

There are many issues and questions
that will be coming in the very near fu-
ture. The possibility of a new high
school, millage tax increases and the
vote in November of whether to ap-
point a Superintendent of Schools or
keep the current system of election in
place are just few of those issues.

I have the ability to handle and all of these tasks. I handle similar matters on a
day-to-day basis. I deal with all types of government agencies and contractors,
while dealing with job issues such as bids, zoning and permits. Those are all issues
that will have to be addressed while being on the School Board. The school
system is not just a place where our children hopefully get educated, it is a very
large and complex business requiring both urgent, immediate attention for each
child's essential education and long-term planning for the proper growth of our
educational system.

Whatever the voters choose to do about the Superintendent position, I can
assure you that I can and will be able to work with the choice of the people.

On August 24, I would appreciate your support, so I can be given the chance to
work for you and our children to make our schools and the quality of Education
that the children receive be the best that can be offered. There is no reason that
you cannot have a voice in your children's education. Never let anyone tell you
there is nothing they can do or that their hands are tied. Expect the most out of
your elected officials, from Dixie County to Washington, D.C.

I am the proud father of four children from pre-school to high school and as a
parent, I will expect nothing less than what I feel is best for my children and yours
as well.
From my family to yours,
God Bless and Thank You,

Fellow Co-Op Members:
My name is Randy Mikell and I am running for re-election to the Board of
Trustees for Central Florida Electric Co-op, Inc. I have been serving on the
Board for the past 9 years. Economic times have been hard on everyone the past
few years including the Co-op. We have strived at CFEC to keep the rates as low
as possible and still keep the service and reliability high. Of all the electric co-
op's in Florida our rate cost for power to the consumer averages right in the mid-
dle between all the others, which is where it should be. With growing
electrical demands we have some high cost decisions to make, like the Dempsey
substation installed a few years ago north of Old Town, or the new Suwannee
transmission line being installed now. These are not things we want to do, these
are things we have to do to keep the systems reliable. The Co-op is a
multi-million dollar operation, these are not numbers we can play with. Our
co-op is, strong and financially sound. I want to continue working with the other
directors and employees at CFEC to help keep it that way.

In a few days, you will relieve a ballot in the mail from the Co-op. I am asking
for your vote and continued support. Thank you.

each other as you pass by on the

those October mornings, when
its cool out, and you can smell
"winter" in the air. The sight of a
nice buck trying to slip past my
tree stand at first light...you can
see the dew on his back, his
breath as it turns to mist, and
his shoulder muscles flexing, as
he walks down the trail...This is
something I truly love.

bers enjoyed a God filled Roman
Sunday afternoon at the Matthel
beautiful old KOA camp-
grounds on the Suwannee Roman
River. New member Scott Acts 2::
Carlson was baptized by Mark 1
Rev. Jarrett Thomas. After-
wards, a delicious barbecue Colossi
meal was served along with Galatio
side dishes prepared by Hebrew
those great Lydia cooks.
God blessed us with sweet 2 Corin
fellowship and beautiful
weather. We very much ap-
preciated the generosity of
Joe Anderson in permitting
us the use of these facili-
ties.

Daniel Terry, 64, was a mission-
ary for the United Methodist.
Church and served in '
Afghanistan for the past 30 years.
He was killed on August 6, 2010, '
along with nine other people (6
Americans) while returning from
a medical trip to a remote village
in Afghanistan. The Taliban has
claimed responsibility for the at- '
tack, accusing them of being
American spies and trying to
convert the people to Christianity.

Dan and his wife, Seija, had three daughters whom they
raised in Afghanistan. They loved the Afghan people and
their work with them. Seija was a nurse/midwife working
with maternal and child health. Dan organized and worked
on water and sanitary plants and other infrastructure im-
provements.

The First United Methodist Church in Cross City has
helped support the Terrys work in Afghanistan for nearly
thirty years. Betty Nell Mills, Missions Chair, stated that
the Terrys have visited the church several times. The most
recent was in March, 2010, when Dan came and gave a very
interesting presentation on his work and the Afghan peo-
ple.

Seija did not come as she was with one of their daughters,
who was due to have their first grandchild.

Dan was fluent in many dialects of the Afghan language,
and dressed the same as they do, which helped him blend in
and establish a rapport with the people. The cruel, sense-
less killing has deprived the Afghan people of some of the
best aides available in their country.

Betty Nell Mills stated that the church is praying for Seija
and their three daughters; and the families of the others
killed. Please join us in remembering them.

We the members of
First Missionary
Baptist Church of
Cross City, FL would
like to take this time
to Thank everyone
for all acts of
kindness shown to
us during the time of
our Pastors

Again, Thank you

Fred Lemond, BP Cleanup Operations

BP has taken full responsibility for the cleanup in the Gulf. And that includes keeping
you informed.

Searching For And Cleaning Up The Oil
You may have heard that oil is no longer flowing into,the Gulf. But every morning
our spotter planes and helicopters continue to search for oil off the coast, heading
to areas previously mapped with satellite imagery and infrared photography. If oil is
found, they radio down to the ships and boats of all sizes that are supporting the
cleanup effort and working to collect the oil. These are local shrimping and fishing
boats organized into task forces and strike teams, plus specialized skimmers ,
mobilized from around the world.

We have recovered more than 35 million gallons of oil-water mixture from the Gulf.
Other methods have also helped remove millions of additional gallons of oil from the
water. We've deployed millions of feet of boom to protect beaches and sensitive
wildlife areas.

Hurricane Preparedness
In the event of a hurricane, our first priority is keeping people safe. In coordination with
the Coast Guard and local officials, we may suspend operations temporarily but have
organized to resume them as soon as possible.

Our Responsibility
We have already, spent more than $3.9 billion responding to the spill and on the
cleanup, and none of this will be paid by taxpayers. We will work in the Gulf as long
,as it takes to get this done. We may not always be perfect but we will do everything
we can to make this right.
